The National Youth Orchestra of Canada/Orchestre National des Jeunes du Canada (NYOC/ONJC) will present a free chamber music concert in Laurier’s Maureen Forrester Recital Hall Friday, July 5 at 7:30 p.m.

The NYOC/ONJC launched their 2013 season on June 23 with over 100 participants and instructors taking up residency at Wilfrid Laurier University’s Waterloo campus. The halls of the Faculty of Music have been energetic and lively as this talented group of youth work tirelessly to prepare for their highly anticipated 2013 Summer Tour.

The NYOC/ONJC summer tour and training program began in 1960, as a means to identify and train young Canadian classical musicians and to provide them with the best possible preparation for a professional career in music.
